The Georgia Department of Revenue seized 280 bottles of high-priced wines from one of Atlanta's most exclusive restaurants

The Georgia Department of Revenue seized 280 bottles of high-priced wines from one of Atlanta's most exclusive restaurants. Tax officials say the restaurant didn't purchase the wine from a wholesale dealer. Owner Richard Lewis says there's a reason for that: The wine belongs to regular customers, for whom the restaurant holds it to drink when they eat there. No dice, say the revenuers, that's still illegal.
